Aldo Tura Red Goatskin Side Table

Wonderful hexagonal side table of Aldo Tura in lacquered goatskin.
This side table was executed, circa 1960 in a red parchment and mahogany base. Along with artists like Piero Fornasetti and Carlo Bugatti, Aldo Tura (1909-1963) definitely belonged to the mavericks of Italian design. Whereas the former chose abundant figurative decorations as his hallmark, Bugatti and Tura focussed on applying a specific material. Tura founded his workshop in Milan in 1939 and the company has been in operation ever since.
